To @ZZ whom t may concern:

Be it known that MARK L. TAiJBERT, a citizen of the United States,residingat Spencer, in the county of Rowan and State of North Carolina,have 'invented certain new and useful lniprovements in Heating Stoves,of which the following is a specilication. y

rilhis invention relates to heating stoves, and it comprises a casinghaving anopen front, aburner arranged in said casing near the bottom, alire back arranged above said burner, said fire back comprising an outercovering of metal and a filling of asbestos or the like, openingsarranged at the bottom and back of the casing, and a space extending inthe rear of said fire back and adapted toreceive the products ofcombustion from the burner. 1

ln the present invention, I have provided a heater of Vthe open lireplace type, where liquid fuel may be employed. The frOntjof the heaterisopen and theburner `is 'arranged near the bottom.' .'iir to supportcombustion enters Vthe front of the casing and passes to the burnerAbove the burner, there is provided a fire back, comprising an outercoating of metal and a filling of asbestos or similar material. Theproducts of combustion from the burner strike the front of the firebaolr, and then pass upwardly to the space between the fire back and thecas-` ing and pass around the fire back tothe openings in the back ofthe casing. The construction provides a very eiiicient type of heater.

If desired, a water receptacle may be arranged on the top of the casingand the products of combustion before passing from the heater come incontact with the fbottom of the water receptacle whereby sufficientwater is vaporized to maintain the proper degree of moisture in theroom.

shown one embodiment ofthe invention.

' ln this showing:

Figure 4L is a detail view` showing the outlet openings.

Referring to the drawing, the reference numeral 1 designates the base ofthe burner casing which, as shown, is supported on legs air chamber 18.

'2 Yto space the casing from the floor; The casing is provided with aback Sand a front if which is provided with an opening 5. The stove isprovided with a lire back 5 arranged within the casing. The back wall 6of 'the iire back is slightly spaced from the rear wall 3 of the casingto provide a space 7. The top 8 of the fire back is also spaced from thetop 9 of the casing to provide a space 10. The front 11 of the fire backis inclined, as shown, providing a relatively restricted outlet 12 forthe products of combustion. A plate 13 extends from the bottom of thevfire back to the base of the casing separating the space 7 from thefront of the stove. Suitable air inlet openings 141 may be provided forthe introduction of air. Outlet openings 15 are provided in the rearwall of the casing acent the bottom. The fire back may be formed ofmetal or other suitable material and is provided with Va filling 32 ofasbestos or other heatinsulating material. Y A suitable burnervisarranged near the 'bottoni of the casing., extending through Asshown, the burner comthe plate 13. prises a lower compartment or section16,

and an upper section 17 surrounded by an the burner casing, there isprovided a pair of perforated members 21 slightly spaced from each otherfor the reception of a wick 22. The Haine may be regulated in Vanysuitable manner, as by an operating member 23, carrying a pinion 24, theteeth of which extend through the perforations in the outer perforatedmember 21 and engage the wick. As shown, the operating member issupported in a sleeve 25, carried by the burner section 17. ln theaccompanying drawing, Iy have Fuel may be supplied from, a fuel tank26., mounted at any suitable point and having`Y a delivery pipe 27. Thispipe com- They air chamber 18 is' provided with inlet openings 19 forthe lintroduction of cold air, and opening 2O arranged at the top of theburner.

niunicates with a pipe 28, extending across the heater and communicatingwith vertical pipes 29. Valves 30 may be arranged in these verticalpipes, whereby delivery of oil to horizontaLpipes 31 may be controlled.The horizontal pipes 31 communicate with and deliver oil to the Vlowersection 16 of the burner casing. Y

In operation. fuel is'delivered from th tank 26 to the burner throughthe pipes By a, proper regulation Y E2?, 28, 29 and oi the valves 3G,"che supply of hiel may be controlled: and when a very low rire is beingburnech one of the Valves may be entirely closed. rlhe flame isregulated by the operating nieinber 23, lwhich raises and lowers thewick 22, end the fuel drawn up by the wick is burned with the airpessing tir-Jongh the air Chamber 18, the air being heated while lessingthrough said hember. @The prodnets of combustion pass -irdlyiroin theburner end strike the inclined 'fr nt li oiA the fire beek. As theexterior oithe fire bash is formed of metal and 1 goed conductor ol"heetu the lront ll, absorbs the heat froinrthe products of coinbustionwhich then pass npifmrdly through 'the restricted opening ifend areprevented iiroin passing into 'the room by the overhang-ing portion oi'the front Weill el.. The products o'icombustion pass through the simcesi() nd ind through the outlet openl5. T he asbestos iiliing takes up thehedt'zibsorbed by 'the fire beek and the heat is radiated from the irontl1 into the room. The Front o the lire beek may be formed. oi? copper orother bright metal, whereby y the light lroin the burner will also bere` lieeted into the room. rlhe plete 'i3 divides the r w; r of thelirebziok through which the prodi; i s oifoon'ibustion pass fromthevspaee in front'ofthe fire bueh in which the vburner is'positioned1whereby en' is delivered*to the burner Aandthe products oi combustioncarried ofi through the spaces 7 and 10.
